Twisted and poured, consumed over 2 hours with some left for night two. Nose shows dark red fruits, olive brine, smoky meat. Palate leans more on the smoky meat side over blue/black fruits and pepper. Ample tannins draw out the finish for 30+ seconds. Will try to revisit note on night number two.

Nose is a bit of black fruit, a bit of river rock, and a bit of bacon fat. Similar flavors, but quickly overwhelmed by tannins. Would be really pleasant otherwise. Perhaps in a year or two...

Twisted and poured, consumed over 4 hours. Didn't take detailed notes. Pretty primary right now dark fruit, a bit of wild game, a little pepper. Loads of texture with a thick mouth feel.

Good. Not as fond of red mt syrah as i am of walla walla. Prefer a bit more meat and fruit. But this was very good. From full pull.

On day two, the fruit is much more expressive. Tannins are still pretty firm. Overall it needs some air before it really starts to come into its own.
